Hello guys today I'm gonna show you how to run Hard Truck Apocalypse
on modern OS like Windows 10, Windows 7, whatever.
So first you need to fresh install the game
I just prefer to have a fresh install
In the meantime while the game is installing, we will need
a software called
ExMachina Unpacker
I will post link in description so
it shouldn't be a problem for you to find it
As you see its version 2.0 by jTommy
ill save it, we will need it later
Ok so setup is done, just click on finish and find a shortcut of your game
Then right click>Properties>Compatibility
Select Windows XP and run this program as Administrator
That's what you need to do
Then go to Open file location
and here you should find a Data folder
So, you need to use the Unpacker
to unpack all that data
so,
you need to navigate to your install directory
in my case its C>Program Files (x86)>Buka>Hard Truck Apocalypse>Data
Now you will find those game archives you actually just need to unpack those
There is total of 4 archives, but
usually the game comes with just 3 because 4th is just an update
I will show you how to get that update
also,
let me see
you need to copy it to
game folder
Now,
we need to unpack all the archives
It shouldn't take a while
Done. Now, you did it so just go back to game directory
go to Data folder and you should find that
From each folder copy the data folder and paste it on your game installation folder
and just replace all files if it asks
and you need to do it for all 4 data packs
As I said, you can...
you don't need that 4th archive
but its some kind of update so it might me a good idea to use it as well
ok so once we have done that, we need to remove the packs because we don't need them anymore
just delete them and that's it
next thing you wanna do is to delete data video folder
cuz those files can make the game crash at startup.
Its just a logo and intro
play it in case you want to play it, but
you just need to
know that it'll make the game crash
As you see, its pretty funny intro, but
anyway, so you need to remove that folder
just remove it from the game directory
you can delete it if you want to, but i prefer to have it on my desktop so i can watch it whenever i want to
and that's pretty much it so now we are gonna launch the game
ok, Its loading
so go to Options and Video setup, you can use the maximum settings as game is quite old but beware!!!
you need to disable Antialiasing and you need to use Bi-linear filtering
cuz if you use any other game might crash
you can increase other settings but anti aliasing and filtering should be disabled
ok so lets see does the game work
yeah, it works perfectly fine as you can see
so if you have any other issues related to the game just ask me
ill be glad to help you to play this awesome game
That's pretty much it, thanks for watching and enjoy!
